Residence for tuition purposes is determined by state law for state-supported colleges, and as such is subject to change by the Texas legislature. Additional information may be obtained from the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. The following is a brief explanation of residence requirements under present law:
1. Students claimed by parent or court-appointed legal guardian for federal income tax purposes. For a dependent or minor to acquire Texas residency through a parent or court-appointed legal guardian, the parent or legal guardian must meet residency requirements for individuals 18 years of age or older and the dependent or minor must be eligible to domicile in the United States. Residency of an eligible dependent or minor is based on one of the following circumstances:
a The residence of the parent who has claimed the dependent for federal income tax purposes both at the time of enrollment and for the tax year preceding enrollment; or
b. The residence of the parent or court-appointed legal guardian with whom the dependent or minor has physically resided for the 12 months prior to enrollment; or
c. The residence of a parent or legal guardian who has joint or single custody of the child, if that individual is not delinquent on the payment of child support; or
d. The residence of the person to whom custody was granted by court order (e.g., divorce decree, child custody actions, guardianship or adoption proceedings), provided custody was granted at least 12 months prior to the student's enrollment and was not granted for the purpose of obtaining status as a resident student;
e. If a student was classified as a resident prior to fall semester 2001 based upon the residency of a caretaker or relative, not a court-appointed legal guardian, he or she shall not be reclassified as a nonresident under this section.
2. Students not claimed by parent or guardian for federal income tax purposes. A student who is not claimed by a parent or guardian as a dependent for federal income tax purposes during the tax year including the enrollment period and the previous tax year will have residency based upon himself/herself and is considered independent. Independent individuals 18 years of age or over who move into the state and who are gainfully employed within the state for a period of 12 months prior to enrolling in an institution of higher education are entitled to classification as residents. An individual who is self employed or employed as a homemaker within the home may be considered gainfully employed for tuition purposes. The student should contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions for more information about self employment and homemaker status.
Proof of residency will be required of any student who has resided in Texas less than one year and/or shown to have left the state or evidence likewise. If a student was gainfully employed prior to enrolling in an institution of higher education, a letter of employment is generally sufficient, but additional documentation may be requested by the institution. The letter of employment must be from the employer and must state beginning and ending dates, number of hours worked per week, and type of work performed.
3. Student enrolled in an institution before being gainfully employed in the state. If 12 months' residence can be shown not to have been for the purpose of establishing residence in the state but to have been for some other purpose (i.e., educational), the individual is not entitled to be classified as a resident of Texas.
Students enrolling in an institution of higher education prior to having resided in the state for 12 months immediately preceding time of enrollment shall be classified as nonresidents for tuition purposes and must submit the following documents for reclassification:
a. Letter of employment stating beginning and ending dates, number of hours worked per week, and type of work performed (gainfully employed for 12 months while attending school)
b.Material to the determination of the establishment of a domicile in Texas are business or personal facts or actions unequivocally indicative of a fixed intention to reside permanently in the state. If four of the following actions have been taken at least 12 consecutive months prior to enrollment and continue to be in effect, the student is considered to have established a domicile in Texas. Proof or documentation for the following actions must be provided:
i. purchasing a residence and claiming it as a homestead
ii. registering to vote and voting in local elections
iii. registering automobiles in Texas
iv. maintaining a Texas driver's license
v. having wills or other legal documents that indicate residence in Texas
vi. maintaining checking accounts, savings accounts, or safe deposit boxes in Texas
vii. having membership in professional organizations
viii. establishing a business in Texas
4. Military personnel and dependents of military personnel. Resident military personnel and their dependents are classified as residents, provided they maintain Texas as the Official Home of Record with the military service. Nonresident military personnel must submit certification of active duty in Texas at each registration to be eligible for resident tuition rates. The Office of Undergraduate Admissions must be contacted for an Active Duty Military/Dependent Certification Form. The spouse or child of a member of the Armed Forces of the United States who has been assigned to duty elsewhere immediately following assignment to duty in Texas is entitled to pay the tuition fees and other fees or charges provided for Texas residents as long as the spouse or child resides continuously in Texas.
Nonresident military personnel who have separated or retired from military service while stationed in Texas and who intend to remain in Texas may be classified as residents provided certain actions are taken by the soldier one year prior to enrollment. Please contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions for information.
5. Non-resident aliens. An alien is considered to be a nonresident unless he/she is in the United States on an immigration visa. Students on immigration visas are classified in reference to resident status the same as United States citizens. See sections 1 and 2 above. For questions regarding House Bill 1403 contact the Office of Admissions.
6. Reclassification of nonresident status. A student classified as a nonresident retains that classification until he/she requests reclassification in writing and provides proof of residence to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions. Proof consists of the items listed in section 3. Application for reclassification must be submitted prior to the official census date of the relevant term. The student should contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions to obtain an application.
7. Visa classification. Students holding certain visas are now eligible for Texas residency for tuition purposes. Please contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions for more information.
8. International students. Some foreign nationals are eligible for
Texas residency for tuition purposes if certain provisions are met prior to
admission. Please contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions for more information.
Tarleton State University offers student financial aid in the form of loans, grants, work opportunities, and scholarships. In determining the type and amount of financial aid necessary to meet a student's financial need, the University assumes that parents and spouses will make a maximum effort to assist the student with college expenses. Financial aid resources of the University should be viewed only as supplementary to the financial resources of the applicant and family.
To apply for financial aid, a student must submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Financial aid applications are available from high school counselors, from most college or university student financial aid offices, from the Internet at www.fafsa.ed.gov, or from
Student Financial Aid
Box T-310
Stephenville, TX 76402
(254) 968-9070 or 254-519-5442
Various federal and state regulations governing student financial assistance require that an institution develop standards to measure academic standing and progress toward a degree objective. These regulations are subject to changes in the Tarleton academic policy regarding probation and suspension.
The financial aid program is designed for all students who have a demonstrated financial need for assistance to meet college expenses and who are making satisfactory academic progress, as defined by the Department of Student Financial Aid. All students must be enrolled at least half time (6 hours) and accepted for enrollment in a program leading to a degree or certificate. Students are limited to receipt of financial aid for only one undergraduate degree and only one graduate degree. Financial aid will not be paid for post-baccalaureate degrees or second graduate degrees. Financial aid eligibility is contingent upon continued satisfactory academic progress toward a degree or certificate. To maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress, a student must meet the standards listed below.
Grade Point Average: Undergraduate students with 60 or more hours must maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.0 on Tarleton course work. Graduate students must maintain a cumulative Tarleton GPA of 3.0.
Excessive Hours: Financial aid will not be available to undergraduate students with more than 192 attempted credit hours. All courses that a student registers for (including courses that were completed, withdrawals, and transfer courses) are included in the excessive hour calculation.
Financial aid will not be available to graduate students with more than 54 attempted credit hours. All courses that a student registers for (including courses that were completed, drops, and withdrawals) or transfers to Tarleton are included in the excessive hour calculation.
Deficit Hours: Financial aid recipients are expected to complete a defined number of credit hours in an academic year or semester. Undergraduate students who are enrolled full time are expected to complete a minimum of 24 credit hours of course work in an academic year (or 12 hours if enrolled for just one semester). Students who are enrolled three-quarter time are expected to complete at least 18 hours of course work in an academic year (or 9 hours if enrolled for just one semester). Students enrolled half time are expected to complete 12 credit hours of course work in an academic year (or 6 hours if enrolled for one semester).
Graduate students enrolled full time are expected to complete a minimum of 18 credit hours of course work per academic year (9 hours if enrolled for just one semester). Graduate students enrolled half time are expected to complete a minimum of 12 credit hours of course work in an academic year (6 hours if enrolled for only one semester).
Students who do not meet their minimum standards are not eligible for financial aid. All financial aid offers will be cancelled in the event of noncompliance with the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy.
Students have the right to appeal their status under Satisfactory Academic Progress Standards. However, the submission of an appeal is only a request and does not imply that financial aid holds will be removed or that approval of the appeal is forthcoming. The appeal must be submitted to the Financial Aid Office in writing and should demonstrate the occurrence of extenuating circumstances that were beyond the student's control.
All appeals must include the following information: the student's name and I.D. number; the student's local or permanent mailing address; the student's local phone number; date of the appeal; and a signed letter from the student requesting a waiver of Satisfactory Academic Progress Standards. This letter must also include the facts or reasons pertaining to the student's inability to maintain stated standards. If the circumstances include medical reasons or the death of an immediate family member, documentation must accompany the appeal. A decision will be reached within ten working days, and the student will be notified of the results by mail.
Priority is given to students who have submitted to the Financial Aid Office all requested and required documentation (including appropriate electronic data exchange) prior to the following dates:
March 1.................... Summer semester
April 1.................... Fall/Spring semester
No aid will be processed after the following dates:
April 1....................... Summer semester
October 15........................ Fall semester
March 15...................... Spring semester
Applicants are responsible for the timeliness and promptness of their applications. Note: Electronic data from outside processing agencies and all other required documentation must be on file in the Financial Aid Office to ensure first consideration for awards.
If a student withdraws from Tarleton before a certain period of time has elapsed, a portion of the financial aid awarded (excluding work-study) will be required to be repaid. The amount to be repaid is determined by the following policy.

Each student must complete pre-loan counseling before release of the first disbursement of the first Stafford or Hinson-Hazlewood loan. After initiating an application in the Financial Aid Office, the actual loan transactions are made between the student borrower and a lending institution participating in the program. All loan amounts are determined by the cost of education, less other financial aid, less expected family contribution or the program limits.
These Guaranteed Student Loans are made by banks, savings and loan associations, and credit unions. Undergraduate loan limits may not exceed $2,625 for freshmen, $3,500 for sophomores, and $5,500 for juniors and seniors for an undergraduate maximum of $23,000. These limits apply to the amount that can be borrowed every academic year or every grade level. Graduate loan limits may not exceed $8,500 every academic year with an aggregate of $65,500. All loan amounts are determined by the total cost of education, less other financial aid, less expected family contribution, or the program limits. Repayment will begin 6 months after the student ceases to be at least a half-time student. The borrower is required to pay a combined lender fee and insurance premium of 3 percent on the principal amount of the loan.
These loans are made by banks, savings and loans, and credit unions. This program is designed for middle-income borrowers who do not qualify for any or all of the federal subsidies under the Federal Stafford Loan program. The annual and aggregate loan limits for undergraduate and graduate students are the same as under the Federal Stafford (subsidized) Loan program. The interest rate is also the same as a subsidized Stafford Loan. However, payment of interest is the responsibility of the borrower during the in-school and grace periods, but may be allowed to accrue and be capitalized. Repayment of principal begins on the day after a 6-month grace period that follows after the student ceases to be enrolled on at least a half-time basis, unless the student requests repayment to begin at an earlier date. The borrower is required to pay a combined origination fee and insurance premium of 3 percent on the principal amount of the loan. The combination of subsidized and unsubsidized Federal Stafford loans for a borrower may not exceed the annual and aggregate limits for loans under the Federal Stafford Loan program.
Parent Loans are made by banks, savings and loans, credit unions, and others to parents to assist in meeting education costs. Parents, on behalf of their dependents, may borrow the annual loan limit of the cost of education, less other financial aid. Repayment begins on the date of disbursement with a variable interest rate determined annually on June 1 equal to the 52-week T-bill rate plus 3.1 percent, capped at 10 percent. The borrower is required to pay an origination fee of 3 percent on the principal amount of the loan.
Application for all short-term loans is made through the Student Financial Aid Office. Distribution and repayment of funds is made in the Business Office. Student ID must be presented upon application. Students will be allowed to have only one Tarleton Loan, and one Tuition and Fee Emergency Loan for the first installment only, plus one Stephen or Student Memorial or Score or Porter Leigon or Potishman Loan per semester. Students will also be allowed only one Potishman or short-term Porter Leigon Loan per semester. Loans will cease to be disbursed 30 days before all loans are due. All short-term loans are paid at the cashier's window in the Administration Building.
These loans of up to $510 must be used for room and board only. There is a $15 service charge or 10 percent interest, whichever is greater. Loans not paid on time will be assessed a $10 late fee. Loans are due 10 days before finals begin in the spring and fall and 5 days before finals begin in each summer term.
These loans must be used for books only. Students may borrow up to $300. A voucher will be issued, which the student will then present to the Campus Store. The purchase amount, up to $300, will be recorded on the voucher; this amount becomes the principal due on the loan. A $15 service charge or 10 percent interest, whichever is greater, will be assessed. Loans are due 10 days before finals begin in the spring and fall and 5 days before finals begin in each summer term. Loans not paid on time will be assessed a $10 late fee.

Conditions are as follows:
The V. O. Porter and Nell Porter Leigon Fund was established in 1986 by a gift from the Anthon M. Leigon Estate to Tarleton.
This is a short-term loan program, which began in 1971 through a $5,000 donation of Fort Worth businessman Leo Potishman.
This fund is used to make loans up to a maximum of $100 to any business major.
This fund was established from the will of Na Homer Stephen in memory of M. L. Matt and Mattie Stephen.
This fund has been established from the will of Will C. Hogg of Houston. Other friends have contributed to it. The original endowment has been invested in securities and the income is being used for Tarleton student loans.
When the state of Texas took over Tarleton State College in 1917, among the many gifts provided by citizens of Stephenville was a cash gift of $75,000 with which to commemorate the name of John Tarleton, the original benefactor who made the establishment of Tarleton State University possible in 1899. Citizens of Stephenville and Erath County remembered John Tarleton with great affection, and for that reason this money was raised by private subscription and turned over to the Board of Directors to be used as a student loan fund. The Board of Directors immediately invested the $75,000 as an endowment, making available for loans the income from interest. The first student loans were made in 1920.
When a student does not make payment on any outstanding loan by the due date, his/her records will be blocked immediately.
Pell Grants are available to eligible undergraduates; amounts range from $400 to $4,000. Pell Grant funds are disbursed based on number of hours enrolled when the funds are received. All other sources of aid will be given in addition to the Pell Grant.
These grants, ranging from $100 to $1,200 per year, are available to help needy undergraduates meet education expenses.
This grant was established by the Texas State Legislature to help needy students. Under this program, students may receive grants ranging from $100 and up.
PSIG/LEAPs furnish financial assistance to students with need attending public institutions of higher education. To be eligible, the applicant must be at least a half-time student, a citizen, a national or a permanent resident of the U.S., and otherwise eligible to pay Texas resident tuition.
The Toward Excellence, Access, and Success (TEXAS) grant program was established in 1999 by the Texas Legislature to provide need-based financial assistance to resident Texas students who completed the Recommended high school program. Eligible students may receive an amount up to the cost of required tuition and fees each academic year of eligibility. Some restrictions apply.
To be eligible for the TEXAS grant, a student must be a Texas resident and a graduate from a public or accredited private high school no earlier than Fall 2001 and must demonstrate exceptional financial need as determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Detailed information is available by request in the Financial Aid Office.
Tarleton participates in the College Work-Study Program, sponsored jointly by the federal government and the University, and in the State Work-Study Program, sponsored jointly by the State of Texas and the University. Students must show financial need to be eligible for work-study. Approximately 130 students are employed in various departments and facilities on campus. Funds are awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis. Current work-study employment does not guarantee a student work-study for the following year. All wages are on an hourly basis, and work schedules are arranged around class schedules.
SCHOLARSHIPSThe Tarleton State University Office of Scholarships is committed to providing assistance to students in pursuit of their education.

Undergraduate academic programs at Tarleton State University integrate the two necessary components of a liberal education: first, the broad basis of knowledge essential to the education of a citizen in a democracy; second, the particular knowledge and skills needed in fields of major and minor concentration essential to our modern technological society. To accomplish these goals for each student, University programs provide three choices:
1. Four-year degree programs in most academic areas, with courses necessary for certification in public teaching offered in education;
2. Pre-professional two- and three-year programs in most professional fields; and
3. Special programs designed to meet unusual requirements of an individual, usually consisting of a rearrangement of university-level subject matter courses for cogent reasons.
The general approach in any case is to require during the first two years an arrangement of courses presenting basic ideas and ideals of civilization and perfecting tools of the learning process. The foundations curricula for the first two years are essentially the same, except for a slight emphasis on mathematics and science for science and business majors and on language and communication skills for liberal arts majors.
Special emphasis on major and minor subjects comes in the third and fourth years. Here the choice is made by each student, normally at the end of the second year, but certainly by the end of the third year. A degree plan is developed in consultation with an academic advisor in the chosen field; thereafter, any changes in this plan must be approved by the academic advisor and the dean of the appropriate college.
Tarleton State University offers the following degree programs:
Bachelor of Applied Arts and Sciences degree

Students should consult both the College of Education for information concerning certification requirements and the specific academic department for their recommended degree program.

"Truthiness" and political satire are imperiled by an Ohio law that makes it a criminal offense to tell political lies, according to a U.S. Supreme Court amicus brief filed by the Cato Institute and satirist P.J. O'Rourke.
Truthiness means a truth that comes from the gut without regard to evidence or logic, the brief (PDF) explains. It is a term originally coined by Stephen Colbert in 2005 on his show The Colbert Report. It's a key part of political discourse and protected by the First Amendment, according to the brief. Above the Law has highlights from the brief, which makes its points with humor.
"After all," the brief says, "where would we be without the knowledge that Democrats are pinko-communist flag-burners who want to tax churches and use the money to fund abortions so they can use the fetal stem cells to create pot-smoking lesbian ATF agents who will steal all the guns and invite the UN to take over America? Voters have to decide whether we'd be better off electing Republicans, those hateful, assault-weapon-wielding maniacs who believe that George Washington and Jesus Christ incorporated the nation after a Gettysburg re-enactment and that the only thing wrong with the death penalty is that it isn't administered quickly enough to secular-humanist professors of Chicano studies."
Above the Law proclaims the document the "best amicus brief ever." The blog identifies this footnote as a shout-out to the Supreme Court's U.S. v. Alvarez decision, which struck down a law that makes it a crime to lie about earning military medals: "Amici and their counsel, family members, and pets have all won the Congressional Medal of Honor."
The brief offers examples of truthy statements that contribute to political discourse, including: "Everybody knows that the economy is better off under [Republican/Democratic] presidents—who control it directly with big levers in the Oval Office." A footnote tells the reader to circle the appropriate political party.
Any injury from truthy statements is best remedied by pundits, satirists and, if necessary, civil defamation suits, the brief says. Nor is government well-suited to examine falsehood. The brief offers this statement by President Barack Obama as an example: "If you like your health-care plan, you can keep it." Politifact said the statement was accurate in 2008, but deemed it the "lie of the year" in 2013.
The brief was filed in Susan B. Anthony List v. Driehaus, a pending Supreme Court case that considers whether two conservative groups have the right to challenge an Ohio law that bars knowing or reckless false statements about political candidates. One of the groups, the Susan B. Anthony List, is an anti-abortion advocacy group that planned to run a billboard ad accusing a Democratic congressman of voting for taxpayer-funded abortion. The group was basing its assertion on the lawmaker's vote for the Obama administration's health-care law, which the Susan B. Anthony List contends provides taxpayer-funded abortion.
Edited on Friday to add the Susan B. Anthony List's position on the Affordable Care Act.

Carney insisted that Bulger was not an FBI informant but instead paid FBI agents to tip him off when he and his gang were being investigated or about to be indicted.
"James Bulger never, ever — the evidence will show — was an informant," Carney said.
Carney said it went against Bulger's Irish heritage to be an informant. He also said Bulger was not close enough to members of the local Mafia to provide any useful information to authorities.
Carney said former FBI agent John Connolly — who was convicted of racketeering for tipping Bulger and Flemmi to an indictment — fabricated a lengthy FBI informant file for Bulger to cover up the fact that he was regularly seen meeting with Bulger.
Kelly said Bulger's gang succeeded by instilling fear in other criminals and corrupting Connolly and other law enforcement officials.
"It was part of a strategy they had, and it worked for them," Kelly said.
Kelly slowly read the names of each of the 19 victims while showing their pictures to the jury.
The first prosecution witness, retired state police Lt. Robert Long, identified surveillance video and photos of Bulger taken during a 1980 investigation. The video showed Bulger meeting with various organized crime figures at an auto repair garage in Boston's North End.
Testimony was set to resume Thursday.

Summary Add
Botanic Gardens Edinburgh
I had the honour to receive yours of the 12
My attention is at present principally engaged with that much controverted subject Vegetable Parthenogenesis—. This I am experimenting largely upon, and I trust ere long to show, that ``Parthenogenesis in plants'', is not as Karsten expresses it ``thrust aside''. Professor Balfour occasionally gives my experiments a look, and is not a little surprised with some of my results. As yet I have only recorded one instance of Parthenogenesis in a paper I read before the Botanical Society here, on the Nature and Peculiarities of the Fern-spore—as illustration of certain views I there proposed and which I am now carefully—and in more detail—working out.
But I must discontinue this digression and return to the chief topic of my communication. And first regarding the application of the term apex to the ovary I applied it as you inferred to the portion nearest the flower. I will be glad to hear the results of your examinations on this point as the suggestion I offered <two pages missing> have been substituted by females Can cultivation effect this? as botanists appear to regard many of the Palms dioecious which present this phenomena in cultivation.
In your application of this phenomena to Acropera, however—there seems to be no difficulty. For may it not be supposed in accordance with your interesting views that the change from the unisexual to the bisexual condition is not yet perfected? and the appearance of fertilised ovules thus be accounted for. As hinted before, however, you will no doubt still observe a difficulty in the way, viz; the contracted stigmatic chamber &c. unless you are inclined to accept the suggestion of the protrusion of pollen-tubes, independent of direct contact with stigma. This difficulty seems to be a necessary consequence of the fact that when female flowers substitute male they are usually quite similar to normal female flowers. This, however, may perhaps be neutralised, should the fertilised ovaries produce only a few seeds.
Your discovery of the independent development of the pollen-tubes in imperfect flowers of Viola & Oxalis is quite new to me. As soon as I have an opportunity I will make experiments on Acropera for the purpose of testing its qualities for self-development of pollen-tubes.
The mode by which its natural fertilisation is effected is most assuredly a complete mystry to me.
I remain | Sir | Yours very respectfully | John Scott
To Charles Darwin Esq.

Released: May 03rd, 2010
Running Time: 153 Min.

Ian Scott, Alysa Gap, Liana (III) (Russian), Mandy Dee, C.J. (IX) (Romanian), Lou Charmelle, Keisha Kane, Missy Stone, Toni Ribas, Mike Angelo, Tori Black, Omar Galanti, Kid Jamaica, Rocco Siffredi, Cathy (III) (Hungarian)
Genre: Anal, Gonzo
Director Rocco Siffredi has always loved strange people and personalities, and he enjoys exploring the offbeat, funny and even psychotic aspects of eroticism. In each of the four scenes of Rocco's Psycho Love, odd happenings and eccentric personalities lead to crazy sex. One of his favorite performers, the intense C.J., portrays an unhinged employee who's jealous of Rocco's attentions, but after she shaves her head, he and British black beauty Keisha Kane get off on (and all over) her bald dome. Superstar Tori Black and hot Missy Stone share a dick, but barely stop fighting over boyfriends and clothes. In Europe, two tasty babes and three construction workers celebrate Christmas with an orgy. And Rocco sets up another fabulous group scene for two studs and three beauties including the gorgeous, naturally buxom Mandy Dee. All scenes include pounding anal sex. The movie delivers gigantic toys and graphic gapes; copious ass-to-mouth flavor; torrential female ejaculations. Rocco himself may be psycho like a fox...

Bio Paints Complex Portrait of AC/DC's Mighty Youngs
The Youngs: The Brothers Who Built AC/DCcolumbiarecords.com
By Jesse Fink, 320 pp., $25.99.
The mere mention of AC/DC to even the most casual of fans will bring up one image: the short, frenetic guitarist Angus Young dressed as a schoolboy and running around the stage like a maniac -- even while pushing 60 years of age, and sometimes making his own devil horns. He may not be the lead singer, but when the crowd chants "AN-GUS! AN-GUS!" during "Thunderstruck," there's no doubt as to who the real front man is for the group.
Diehard fans and writers who know a bit more about the band dynamics might tell you that it's quiet rhythm guitarist Malcolm who really calls the shots, while overlooking them both is older brother George.
George was never in the group, but was a crucial developer of the band's sound (especially in the early days) and the whiz in the studio, utilizing knowledge first learned as a member of the Easybeats, who had a worldwide hit in 1966 with "Friday on My Mind."
Fink's book is a mostly solid addition to the growing AC/DC canon, but its title is definitely a misnomer.
The famously private Youngs, who have always exhibited a "close ranks" mentality to the press or any outsider, did not speak to Fink for this book, as they have not for any other. Nor is there much in the narrative about the actual working relationships between the three Youngs over the decades.
Instead, Fink bases the book on a series of new interviews with those who have had mostly previous associations with the group: management, record-company reps, other musicians, DJs and at least one former actual member, bassist Mark Evans.
Fink also swings back in forth from hardcore hero worship of the band to biting criticism of their dealings, and back again. He accuses other authors of performing "journalistic fellatio" on the group, but reading his introduction makes that observation seem hypocritical.
So what the reader gets with The Youngs are mainly others talking about the Youngs. Almost to a person, they praise the group's music and longevity, but many also seem to have seemingly legitimate axes to grind as to their treatment by the brothers. The Youngs, as written here, alternately toss people aside when they are no longer needed or fail to recognize contributions.
Take David Huerta, a 25-year-old graphic designer in 1977 who created the hugely famous AC/DC logo for a one-off record project. That the logo sprang from his mind is not in doubt -- he's got the original artwork.
But other than his initial commission, he has not received a single penny from the hundreds of millions of dollars that his work has generated, even when it is the only thing on a T-shirt, sticker, baseball cap or baby's onesie. Surprisingly, he's not bitter, nor has he ever pursued a lawsuit. But the Youngs could have given him something, even if they aren't legally obligated to do so.

I finally got a chance to tackle the mountains of ARCS I brought home last weekend from ALA, and started with the upcoming book by Lois Lowry. Due for release in April 2010, The Birthday Ball tells the story of Princess Patricia Priscilla, who, a mere five days before her sixteenth birthday, can bear the boredom of privilege no longer. Hoping to live a little before she is required to choose a suitor at her birthday ball, Patricia Priscilla changes clothes with her chambermaid in order to visit the village incognito. There she starts to attend the local school, where her eyes are opened not just to the inequalities within her own domain, but to the choices available to her as an intelligent princess.
This is a very funny book, with enough over the top characterization and mistaken identity to please Shakespeare. The slightly maniacal illustrations by the great Jules Feiffer heighten the comedic effect of the story, as does the narrator's convivial tone. Buffoonery abounds, from the stone-deaf Queen, who lost her hearing because she was too vain to wear a hat on an extremely cold day; to the incessantly bickering Conjoint Counts who can agree on nothing except toilet humor; to the professional Splashers, who's sole duty is to make waves in bodies of water so that their odious master may never see how ugly he is. The Princess herself is not initially a sympathetic character by virtue of her condescending attitude about "peasants". She is a quick learner, however, and her natural compassion, born as much from a quick mind as a kind heart, breaks through.
Despite the fact that a princess appears on the cover on the book, complete with sparkles and a girl-friendly purple background, boys will find the three dreadful suitors (four, if you count the Conjoint Counts as two) appealing with their nasty habits and unsociable manners. For instance:
"[The Conjoint Counts] had a particular annoying prank that they played on each other. One would wait until his brother's face was turned toward his own, and then belch loudly at it and cry, "Gotcha!"
The belched-at one would invariably respond with a full-scale wedgie."
Wedgies and princesses? In the same book? Hard to resist, especially as a read-aloud.
Just as Princess Patricia Priscilla finds a way to control her fate, so does The Birthday Ball find a way to buck the conventions of the fairy tale. The ingredients are all in place, but Lowry deftly redefines 'Happily Ever After'. This one is a crowd pleaser all round.

Statement of Faith
The Institute for Worship Studies, its administration and its faculty confess the historic Christian faith. We affirm the centrality of Jesus Christ and the authority of Scripture in all matters of faith and practice. Thus, we confess with the whole church the summary of faith handed down throughout history and affirmed by all Christians everywhere, known as the Apostles' Creed.
The Apostles' Creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord.
He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit,
born of the virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and buried.
He descended into hell.
On the third day, he rose again from the dead.
He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.

WASHINGTON, April 19 (Reuters) - The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration on Friday said Boeing Co's 787 airliner would retain permission to fly up to 180 minutes over remote areas and oceans once U.S. regulators allowed the Dreamliner to return to the skies.
U.S. regulators on Friday approved a revamped battery system for the 787, paving the way for the high-tech jet to return to service after more than three months of grounding prompted by lithium-ion batteries that burned on the planes.
The FAA did not mention the extended range certification, or ETOPS, in its statement on Friday, but a representative for the U.S. regulatory agency later told Reuters the 180-minute permission Boeing had obtained before the battery-related grounding had not changed.

AliasScore: 4.8 / 10
Alias is one of those television shows that
would fit extremely well as a video game. It's fast paced, there's
plenty of action and sneaking around (the latest trend in today's
gaming), and a twisty enough plot that would put most RPGs to shame. And
while licensed games seldom work out, gems like the original Buffy the
Vampire Slayer on the Xbox prove that they're not always lost causes.
Unfortunately, despite the vast gorges of potential, the Alias video
game is completely marred by sub par execution. |
any sense if you don't follow the show, but
it's not terribly important - you just play Sidney Bristow as she
traipses over the world, infiltrating evil casinos and eviler insane
asylums, and dresses up a variety of wacky disguises (and yes, that
fantastic blue haired goth chick outfit shows up.) |
Advertisement |
movements border on over-the-top ridiculousness, particularly while
running. The advertisements brag about motion captured actions, and
while that's potentially believable, it seems like the animation
programmers didn't know how make it look realistic. On the other end,
the environments are fairly good looking, and while lacking a lot of the
fancy effects, are at least well detailed.
